    Hah, back when PlayOnLinux was the “easy” way to run windows software.

    The ready made scripts almost never worked. But it was a good effort that paved the way for Lutris

      Couldn’t find anything on a cursory search, how do you even install that? Looks so much more real than the clones on play store

        The last real HTC Sense flip clock was made for android 4.4 (2013) You’re only gonna find clones sadly.

    I wish I also had screenshots of my desktops from back in the days. It would reflect my own evolution.

        Certainly is for Minecraft.

        The more modern form of modding with Forge had really matured by that point and people were testing the boundaries of what they could create with modpacks.

        The following year saw the release of 1.7.10 as well as the acquisition by Microsoft and rounded off what was generally considered the golden age of modded Minecraft.

        Why would things from 12 years ago not be nostalgic?!

          Because 12 years is barely even enough time to graduate high school?

        I found an Ubuntu 12.10 DVD on one of my spindles the other day and spun it up and oh my god how the memories came flooding back. I kinda loved Unity at the time. I mean, I’m not giving up Plasma for it, but I thought Unity was so refreshing coming off of Windows 7/8.

        Its somewhat the same today. Its just packaged wine, into proton. Valve pays for Proton a.k.a Wine releases. TLDR: Steam didnt make Linux gaming viable. Wine did, Steam just made it more mainstream and easier to implement.
